The GOP is Not Pro-Life

We all knew it was coming thanks to the leak. Nonetheless, the impact from such a blow is still hard hitting.

On Friday, June 24th, 2022, the Supreme Court overturned Roe v Wade, killing the consitutional right to abortion.

The GOP is not now, nor has it ever been a pro-life party. "Yes, they are!" I can hear some of you saying. Shut up. SHUT. UP. Repulicans go on and on about the preciousness of unborn life. All the while they cannot give a crap about the millions of American lives that already exist, doing zilch to show they are a true pro-life party.

The GOP is pro-birth. They will fight tooth and nail for the unborn. They've been doing it for decades. But the second that child is born, the ferocity to fight for that child that was unborn is gone, scattered like cockroaches when the lights come on. Nine months. That is the extent the GOP can be bothered to care about life. Once they are out of the womb, babies get the same care from the GOP that they give every other American: none.

We are currently dealing with a baby formula crisis. Back in late May 192 house Repuplicans voted no on a bill that would grant easier access to baby formula. Feeding starving babies should be a no brainer, but for the GOP, sticking it to the democrats and President Biden is more important. If they really were pro-life, every single one of those house repuplicans would have voted yes.

Mass shootings are a regular occurrence in America because our gun laws are a joke. It is easier to get a gun than it is to get a driver's license. GOP members could vote with democrats on stricter gun laws but that would mean they'd have to stop getting that mad money from the NRA. They care more about some idiot's right to own a weapon of war and money than they do the victims of the Buffalo and Uvalde mass shootings.

Republicans are against free health care and a myraid of other things that fall in with pro-life policies. I'm not even sure why they call themselves a pro-life party when they've shown that time and time again, they are anti-life as it gets.

Composer Shout Out: Yuji Ohno

For my money, one of the best composers in the music business would have to be Yuji Ohno. This guys is mostly known for his work on just about anything that has to do with Lupin III. After the last few weeks, it's hard for me not to think of Ohno's compositions when Lupin comes to mind. (I've been listening to his various albums to get my jazz fix.) Ohno's works are primarily jazz-inspired and even some of his earliest efforts on Lupin music in the '70s is still considered extraordinary. Not only has he covered music for the various Lupin series and movies, he's also done music for all three PS2 Lupin games. The man is also an accomplished musical genius even when he isn't working on music for Lupin. Tokyo City Lights is a jazz masterpiece. If you want to hear some of Ohno's work, just check out this YouTube pag e with various uploads.

R.I.P Mickey Mouse

In case you haven't heard , Wayne Allwine, the voice actor of Mickey Mouse passed away at the age of 62. He had been voice the world's most famous mouse since 1977. The original voice actor for Mickey was Walt Disney himself. Allwine's imitation of Disney's voice was spot on. Most of the the Mickey Mouse cartoons I've seen were voiced by Allwine. 'Tis a sad day in cartoon history. R.I.P, Wayne Allwine.

Spectacular Art of Andie Tong

Andie Tong is the regular artist of the Spectacular Spider-Man's UK comic book. Now I haven't read any of the issues, but I did come across his deviant art page last night, which feature some of the pages from what looks to be a superb comic. I love all the quirky posses Andie draws Spidey in. He also does a terrific job on the webbing and the half-mask. I can take big or small eyes on a Spider-Man mask, but I think Andie gets the right combo. The eyes aren't too big and they aren't too small. Andie also draws a very excellent Green Goblin. It'd be sweet if he could do the art for some of the Spider books in the states. James Offredi does the coloring on Andie's artwork. Needless to say, James does an amazing job, making Andie's already gorgeous art look even better. I know its only artwork and I haven't read any of these issues, but from what I've seen, it looks like the stories in the Spectacular Spider-Man UK book are a heck of a lot more interes...
